Acknowledgments

But in January 2008, everything around me seemed cold and distant, not because of the weather—but because I felt deeply alone. While others sipped iced drinks and strolled in flip-flops, I was dealing with a breakdown that landed me in the hospital. My behavior had become erratic. I was on a…-
